Though new releases tend to come fast and slip past us in Bandai’s ever growing So-Do line of candy toy figures, we absolutely had to spotlight this latest reveal. Exclusive (so far) to the Kamen Rider: Reiwa The First Generation theatrical film, Kamen Rider Ichi-Gata is about to arrive in So-Do form!
Though Aruto never knew his real father, he was cared for as a child by a Humagear bearing his name and likeness. Unbeknownst to Aruto this humagear, Soreo Hiden, not only was instrumental in the launch of the Ark satellite, but was this world’s first Kamen Rider! Using the Rocking Hopper progrise key Soreo became the powerful Kamen Rider Ichi-Gata (Type 1). Able to restore berserk humagears and go toe to toe with Zero-One in battle, Ichi-Gata will be a must have addition to Zero-One collections and for So-Do fans in particular.
For now we just have the Bandai candy blog’s official reveal of the figure, but it should be in the upcoming So-Do wave beyond May when we’re getting Metal Cluster Hopper, 001, & Zonjis. Join in on the ever growing discussion in our popular So-Do discussion thread on the forums.
Since this line was being discussed elsewhere, I figured a thread was needed. I don't have pics of mine yet, but so far I have several OOO and Den-O Sodo candy toys. They're cheap, simple, fun little figures that come mostly assembled with a little bit of paint here and there and stickers for the rest.
Technically these have been around since Ex-Aid but no threads really about them. (they've been mentioned in the Minipla thread but not really discussed) The build ones especially were quite good and the Zero-One line seems to be great so far.
Hey, thanks for doing this! I've put an order in for a case/set/whatever of the Build Genius wave, and I'm psyched to see what this line is like. It'll be cool to have a place to check out what other figures people have. This'll be fun!
I have a box of the Kuuga set pre-ordered. They look fun.
I started collecting this line with Build, skipped Zi-O, Den-O and some of the P-Bandai stuff, but I'm going strong on collecting Zero-One. So happy that the complete boxes now include as many bodies as you need, it makes collecting them in the US so much easier!
Yeah, it’s nice that the cases contain everything you need. I had to buy extra Batta legs and Tora arms because I picked up the OOO set rather than the case.
Speaking of OOO, I finally stickered up my wave 1 case. Had to open the Spare Taka head, I accidentally ripped the little forehead sticker the first time. The figures all look fantastic, and I love how with the way the parts per box works out, you get a spare stand to use with Ankh. Just need to get the stickers on the Ginga I got from the HLJ black Friday mystery bag and I'll be caught on all the So-Do I have
I'm not sure which ones I want to go after next, maybe Build? But I'd probably only really want RabbitTank and Cross-Z. I should take some pics of my OOO and Den-O ones. I'd go for W but I hate how most of them are exclusives, and thus crazy overpriced on Mandarake.
I can't wait until they do Gaim, unless of course they make most of them exclusive as well. :/
Yeah, I don't really need HeatMetal and LunaTrigger, or CycloneJoker Gold Xtreme, but all the other W figures I wish weren't so crazy expensive. I'd have preferred the retail set include Xtreme instead of Joker, seems like Joker would have been better as an exclusive than W's final form. Also, if you just want Build and Cross-Z, have you looked into the Dai So-Do set? Includes the special version of the two with more paint, along with the swirly pipes thing that forms around Build when he changes between half-bodies. It's pretty cool, and I'm pretty sure it's not too expensive on Mandarake, not as bad as W stuff. I know the Dai So-Do set with Grease and Rogue goes for only around ¥3000
Thanks for the heads up on Cross-Z and Build. That's actually a pretty neat gimmick for a set, and would certainly be the easiest way to get them both, though if I want to make the most of it I'll need a random Build mixmatch to display on it.
So-Do Chronicle is doing W again, because of course it is. Premium Bandai.
You remember that form that was hypothetical in-universe and appeared for like, two seconds? Yup.
